Happy Thanksgiving America
Happy Thanksgiving to all American people wherever you may be on God's bountiful earth.
Mayor Of London Wants To Ban President Trump From Great Britain
It's a measure of how far Great Britain has descended into third world mediocrity when a paid up member of the Ummah leads its capital city.
It needs to be stated from the outset that the Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, was a political nonentity who owes his position to the simple fact that he is not white and a Muslim. Khan is the ideal choice for a political class that is in the process of imposing multi-culturalism on a country that didn't ask for it, wasn't consulted and doesn't want it.
Having a Muslim Mayor of London is used by the political class to display their multi-cultural credentials on the world stage and to falsely portray the city as a peaceful example of a so-called 'multi-cultural society'.
Due to white flight and being the epicenter of the political swamp, the once mighty capital city of the British Empire has been transformed into an overcrowded series of welfare financed, crime infested, mono-cultural ghettos interspersed with affluent areas inhabited by mega-rich foreign oligarchs as well as wealthy celebrities. It is also home to the corrupt political class with its taxpayer funded army of cronies, bureaucrats and hangers-on.
There are some areas of trendy, overpriced bars and restaurants frequented by a small affluent middle class who pretend they are living in a functional world but their eyes and minds are closed to the disaster that surrounds them.
The sad truth is that this trendy middle class is comprised mainly of millennials who are not affluent enough to be independent of their parents or the landlords that are consuming the biggest chunk of their income in rent.
As is the case with all Muslims, Sadiq Khan's loyalty is to his own community, the Ummah, and this is reflected by his appeasement of the Muslim terrorists that have been murdering and maiming Londoners for years and his hatred for President Trump over a non-existent ban on Muslims entering the United States.
Why a temporary moratorium on immigration into the United States from seven backward, Muslim majority countries which are havens for terrorists should trigger the Mayor of London speaks volumes about his allegiances.
Sadiq Khan is not only a danger and embarrassment to Londoners, his position as Mayor of the capital city gives him a global profile so his utterances and behavior are seen as a reflection of the nation as a whole.
Khan's campaign to prevent the President of the United States of America from making an official visit to Great Britain is not only naive, it is a display of his ignorance of the history and protocols of the country he claims to be a loyal citizen of.
State visits to Great Britain are the prerogative of the Head of State, which is Her Majesty the Queen, in conjunction with her Prime Minister. Non-State visits, but otherwise official visits, are the prerogative of the Prime Minister in conjunction with the Foreign Office.
Speaking on behalf of the nation is also the prerogative of Her Majesty and these two offices of state unless otherwise delegated.
He may have delusions of grandeur but Sadiq Khan is none of these and he has no business insulting or denigrating the President of our closest ally which also happens to be the world's only remaining superpower and the world's largest economy.
Being a Pakistani at heart with no deep roots in Great Britain, Khan is obviously ignorant of our relationship with the United States of America. The history of America is closely bound with that of Great Britain and this is reflected by the fact that the liberty and freedoms that made America the greatest nation on earth are based on our own freedoms that evolved over centuries.
Despite being a former colony, the American people continued their links with the mother country by basing their founding documents on the Magna Carta signed by King John in 1215 and the British Bill of Rights signed into law in 1689.
A great friend and ally to Great Britain, President Trump may not be welcome by the Mayor but Khan's friends and Great Britain's enemies get the red carpet treatment.
Vile preachers of hate who despise Great Britain, along with its people and its way of life, are allowed into the country to address meetings and march through the streets of London unhindered by Mayor Khan or the Metropolitan police 'service' over which he has control.
Sadiq Khan's insincerity toward Londoners can be measured by his statement after the London Underground terrorist attack in September 2017. He stated that he "utterly condemns the hideous individuals who attempt to use terror to harm us and destroy our way of life".
This is the same Sadiq Khan that shared a platform with a 'hideous individual' by the name of Sajeel Sahid who had links with jailed hate preacher Anjem Choudary and Al-Qaeda and who also trained the ring leader of 7/7 London Transport bombers. Sajeel Sahid was also a gym buddy of London Bridge murderer Khuram Butt. (See here and here)
Sadiq Khan bristles with righteous indignation and won't countenance a visit by President Trump, the leader of the free world and the scourge of ISIS and radical Islamic terrorism but he is happy to share a platform with five Islamic extremists at a conference organized by the radical pro-Palestinian group, Friends of Al-Aqsa, in London.
Despite this being London where women have equal rights, the meeting was segregated by gender therefore women were not allowed to use the same entrance as men; they were ordered to use a separate side entrance located in an adjacent street next to a snooker club.
Mayor Khan wants to ban President Trump from Great Britain but has links to a creature named Makbool Javaid and other members of a Muslim extremist group called Hizb ut-Tarir. (See here)
In conclusion: The man who told Londoners they should get used to being murdered and maimed by Muslim terrorists because its "part and parcel of living in a big city" is an apologist for the enemies of Great Britain and therefore poses a clear and present danger to the safety and security of her people.
Sadiq Khan is a political pygmy, a complete and utter ignoramus, an apologist for Muslim terrorists and a token appointment by an agenda driven political elite.
He does not speak for the nation and is unfit for this high profile position; he is an embarrassment to Great Britain and should be removed from office forthwith.

The Politicization Of The Police And Demise Of The British Bobby
A picture gallery to illustrate the demise and degradation of a much loved and respected public institution.
When the political elite commandeered public institutions and agencies to use as agents of the state to impose their 'progressive', multi-cultural agenda none was more visible and humiliating than the transformation of the British police force and its Bobbies.
The British police force with its dark blue uniform and unique egg-shaped helmet was until recently a highly visible example of public service and law enforcement. Every village and town had its police officers pounding the beat alone or in pairs on foot or bicycle in the case of larger constabularies.
Armed with only a truncheon and a whistle the sight of a Bobby walking his beat was enough to deter the bad guys and mischievous youngsters, of criminal or bad behavior. Things were slightly different in the cities where the police used horses and motor vehicles.
The prime purpose of the police force was to serve and protect the public by enforcing the law of the land; this purpose has been perverted into enforcing political correctness and imposing a 'progressive' agenda which includes cultural replacement with it's so called 'multi-cultural society'.
The first recorded organized law enforcement officers were known as the Bow Street Runners after a London magistrates court of the same name and formed in 1749. These were succeeded by the Metropolitan Police Force which was formed by the then Home Secretary, Sir Robert Peel, in 1829.
Originally nicknamed Peelers and later Bobbies after their founder the name has stood the test of time and was still in frequent use until their politicization.
The police force, including the Metropolitan Police Force, have been renamed the police 'service' and familiar names such 'holding cells' and the dreaded 'booking sergeant' have been replaced by a 'custody suite' and a 'detention officer' or other such soft, politically correct title.
A night sobering up in a custody suite doesn't seem quite so forbidding as a night in the cells but I digress.
The physical requirements of height, weight and fitness were virtually abolished to make the 'service' more inclusive and this heralded in the age of the short, fat cop who gasps for breath while walking to the bakery to get the morning supply of doughnuts.
Please look at the following picture gallery and feel free to laugh or cry accordingly:

Once considered to be respected pillars of the community the British Bobby has been reduced to a laughing stock with his juvenile antics and his politically correct campaigns on behalf of any minority so long as they are against the traditional British way of life.
One of the more sinister manifestations of their new role as agents of the state is treating the public they are meant to serve as the enemy and the imported enemies of traditional Great Britain as the oppressed minority in need of their protection.
They have given up their primary role of preventing and investigating crimes such burglary, robbery and street violence against the ordinary citizen but use their resources instead policing social media looking for so-called hate speech and hate crimes.
Hate speech and hate crimes are extremely vague, one-way charges used exclusively against the indigenous population in order to prevent free speech, intimidate dissenters and hide the truth about their most favored imported community and their religion of peace.
All the respect, trust and goodwill that the police had built up over two centuries has been thrown away by senior officers who have sold their souls to an unscrupulous political elite and their destructive agenda.

Great Britain Is On The Brink Of A Communist Disaster
History shows us that politics periodically undergoes a re-alignment where the pendulum swings from one side of the political spectrum to the other. What it also shows is that the pendulum is on a ratchet which prevents it from swinging back to its original starting point but to a new starting point much further to the left.
This is certainly the case in Great Britain where the pendulum has ratcheted so far to the left that Jeremy Corbyn, a life-long communist, has seized control of the Labour Party along with his cadre of fellow revolutionaries.
This coup makes Corbyn the leader of Her Majesty's Opposition in Parliament and who, according to latest opinion polls, will become the Prime Minister of Great Britain should there be a general election any time soon.
A career politician Jeremy Corbyn has never wavered in his belief that capitalism will be overthrown and replaced by a dictatorship of the proletariat as ordained by his ideological mentor, Karl Marx.
Not even the myriad of examples of human tragedies around the world caused by this perverted ideology will shake his belief or give him pause for thought for its hundreds of millions of victims.
Corbyn's Comrade No1 is the Shadow Chancellor of the Exchequer, John McDonnell, who always denied his devotion to communism until he was caught on video proclaiming his fealty to Karl Marx to a closed group of functionaries along with his life-long dedication to the overthrow of capitalism.
As Chancellor of the Exchequer he would finally have the power to fulfill his life's ambition and such is his confidence of his own veracity he has published his economic plan for all to see. It's standard Marxist economics which has proved so disastrous across the planet from China to Zimbabwe and a host of other unfortunate countries in between.
He plans the nationalization of key industries without proper compensation together with a tax, spend, borrow and debt policy on steroids with government supplied free stuff for everyone.
This includes the usual list of items that socialist wet dreams are made of:
Free education for everyone from pre-school to pensioner including college and university
Cancellation of student debt
Free/subsidized municipal housing
A national living wage for everyone
Increased public sector pay
Increased welfare benefits
Expanded government
Expanded entitlements which will create more dependency and a bigger captive voter base.
It's worth noting that McDonnell is on record as saying that "democracy doesn't work for us" so increasing the voter base is a temporary measure to secure power before elections are reduced to a cosmetic exercise or abolished altogether. This diehard communist actually quoted from Mao Zedong's Red Book during a debate in Parliament.
To add to the misery of this impending economic disaster Corbyn and his comrades plan to instigate a social and cultural revolution by opening the borders even further than they are now to mass immigration from the third world with no limit on the numbers.
It's also worth noting that this social and cultural revolution is as much to do with their visceral hatred of Great Britain, along with its people, its heritage and its way of life as it has to do with their devotion to a dictatorship of the proletariat.
Apart from massive borrowing, McDonnell and the government plan to pay for this largess in the time honored communist manner, i.e. taxing the co-called rich to the hilt and increasing the tax on corporations and businesses across the economy.
No communists worth their salt could possibly ignore their impulse to indulge in class warfare therefore inheritance tax will be raised to confiscatory levels which will effectively abolish private property.
Q.E.D. The Communist Manifesto by Marx and Engels.
Jeremy Corbyn's Comrade No 2 is his Shadow Home Secretary, an ideological soulmate and former lover named Dianne Abbott. Notorious for her lack of intellectual prowess and being numerically illiterate, Abbott is a self-described 'Afro-Caribbean', as well as an anti-white racist and fellow communist.
She is on record as saying that she is ashamed to be British but like all socialist bloviators she has shown no inclination to find a more suitable country and leave.
Such is the dedication of comrades Corbyn and Abbott to communism, their idea of a lovers vacation was touring East Germany by motorcycle at the height of the Cold War.
The fact that tens of thousands of people were being arrested and tortured by the all-pervasive East German secret police, the Stasi, and hundreds more died trying to escape to West Germany was of no concern to the happy vacationers.
Like communists the world over, the tortured and the murdered are acceptable collateral damage to Jeremy Corbyn and his comrades in the Labour Party. They obviously consider the murder and oppression of hundreds of millions of people since 1917 to be a price worth paying for the greater good which to them is a communist dictatorship along the lines of the old East Germany and latterly Venezuela.
In a warning to the British people of what's in store for them if and when this gang of communists should ever get their hands on the levers of power. All three of these ideologues, and it must be assumed the rest of the Labour Party, were high profile supporters of the Hugo Chavez revolution in Venezuela.
They openly celebrated his victory and lectured the British people on the merits of the Chavez revolution along with the benefits it will bring not only to Venezuela but to the rest of South America and the world at large.
They steadfastly refuse to this day to criticize the brutal Chavez/Maduro regime or acknowledge the disastrous consequences of communism for the people of Venezuela.
In a further and more sinister warning which the British people should take heed is another member of the Corbyn clique, the former Mayor of London Ken Livingstone. Publicly they keep this lunatic at arm's length but covertly accept him as an ideological soul-mate and comrade.
Livingstone is a nasty piece of work if ever there was one; he is an unadulterated and very vocal communist ideologue, a Great Britain and Israel hater as well as a vile anti-Semite. He makes no secret of why he believes the Chavez revolution failed in Venezuela.
Livingstone maintains that Hugo Chavez made the mistake of not following the standard communist revolutionary practice off rounding up and eliminating the country's elite after usurping power.
For those who are unfamiliar with the post-revolution practice as advocated by Ken Livingstone please note:
The first task after the usurpation of power is to round up and murder the leaders of all organizations that oppose the regime; the second task is to intimidate, arrest, imprison and torture any other opponents, no matter how minor, who raise a voice of dissent.
This practice is well documented and should be compulsory reading for all school children and those that support socialists and communists in the western democracies.
They should be made to study the post-revolutionary actions of Lenin and Stalin in Russia, Mao Zedong in China, Fidel Castro in Cuba, Robert Mugabe in Zimbabwe and the creator of the killing fields, Pol Pot in Cambodia along with all the other mass murderers who believe that communism is the ideal and only economic system for their countries and the world.
The reasons why the British people, who fought over the centuries for the freedoms and liberty they enjoy today, and who made such a massive contribution to global civilization, are embracing such an oppressive freedom crushing ideology is open to debate.
There are however three reasons that are immediately apparent.
Firstly, the inability of younger generations to assimilate and analyze information then form an independent opinion. This inability to think for themselves has left them vulnerable to propaganda whereby their opinions are formed for them by slanted information disseminated by the agenda driven political elite.
This implanting of a single worldview is a classic description of 'groupthink' as used by Big Brother in George Orwell's apocalyptic novel 1984 about a future socialist tyranny.
Secondly, the mainstream media, led by the taxpayer funded state broadcaster universally known as the BBC, are the purveyors of state propaganda which churns out its 'progressive' world view 24/7 through all its outlets including radio. This not only includes news and current affairs but all its viewing and listening programs including so-called light entertainment.
Thirdly, the lack of effective opposition in Parliament and the country at large to the onward march of socialism. The Conservative and Liberal Parties used to be the guardians of British values such as individual liberty, free enterprise, law and order, patriotism etc. but even they have caught the globalist disease of 'progressivism' and its call for an egalitarian, borderless world in a post democratic age.
To conclude: In their government induced slumber and their ignorance of history, far too many British people have yet to grasp that they are one general election away from losing everything their ancestors fought and died for.
This includes their liberty, their prosperity, their culture, their heritage and their centuries old way of life.

Kevin Spacey Is The Product Of A Godless Depraved Society
People should not be surprised by the revelation that Hollywood idol Kevin Spacey enjoys having sex with men and young boys. Sex with children is accepted as a perfectly normal practice among inhabitants of Tinsel Town as their defense of abominations like Roman Polanski and Woody Allen demonstrates.
Sex between adults and children may not be acceptable just yet by the public at large but among those who have declared themselves the enlightened leaders of society it is considered to be a normal, healthy and natural sexual practice. They believe that pedophilia will eventually become as normal and acceptable as homosexuality and other forms of unnatural sexual and gender dysfunction.
Child sex abusers are not confined to perverts like Kevin Spacey or the entertainment industry; they infect every area of life from politics and the judiciary to sport and community organizations. Even the Roman Catholic Church has had its scandals with enrobed pedophiles assaulting choir boys when they thought God wasn't looking.
The sad fact is that the more widespread child sexual exploitation becomes the bigger the call for it to be legalized.
Child sexual exploitation in America is in its infancy compared to Great Britain where it has been absolutely rampant for decades and tolerated by the authorities.
The top stars of the taxpayer funded state broadcaster, known universally as the BBC, were involved in a pedophile ring which abused children and assaulted vulnerable women for decades.
One of them, a creature named Jimmy Savile, was so depraved he used his celebrity status to gain access to children's hospitals where he sexually assaulted children in their sick beds. Everyone and his uncle at the BBC, as well as nursing staff at the hospitals, were aware of Savile's depravity but kept silent supposedly to protect his fundraising activities.
His fund raising activities, it must be added, were used as another front to gain access to children which he subsequently abused.
Led by the city of Rotherham, towns and cities across Great Britain were infested with Muslim pedophile gangs who groomed, gang raped and pimped out underage white girls with the tacit approval of the local authorities; this included elected local officials and Members of Parliament. (See history of Rotherham Muslim Pedophiles here)
It also included the police, schools, children's homes and, most shamefully, the local children's welfare departments who were all aware but remained silent for reasons of 'cultural sensitivity' and their concern for something called 'community cohesion'.
Since nobody in authority has been held accountable and punished for being accessories to these crimes against children, there are some 40,000 victims who have been denied justice and sacrificed on the altars of political correctness and government imposed multi-culturalism.
Most of the areas infested with these Muslim pedophile gangs are controlled by the socialist Labour Party whose founders have campaigned for a century or more to normalize then legalize sex between adults and children.
The history of legalizing pedophilia goes back to the Bloomsbury Group, the Fabian Society and latterly with the Labour and Liberal Parties.
Labour Politicians And Child Sex - Its Not A Scandal Its Progressive
Since it was taken over and 'modernized' by an inner circle of remote, trendy elitists these 'progressive' ideas have also infested the British Conservative Party in addition to the Democratic Party in the USA.
This gradual acceptance of pedophilia is not the result of a natural evolution of a perverted practice over time; the slow process of legalizing sex between adults and children has been one of the primary goals of the so-called 'progressive' left for over a century.
Even a cursory glance into the Bloomsbury Group shines a light on the history of this 'progressive' movement and reveals the origin of the descent into depravity which we see taking place today.
The Bloomsbury Group was a gathering of influential self-styled intellectuals, including artists, economists and politicians who believed that a 'progressive' socialist society should consider acts of sexual depravity, including those with children, as normal.
Influential people of the day such as John Maynard Keynes, Lytton Strachey, Havelock Ellis and Bertrand Russell considered themselves to be 'progressive' and were all drug addicts, perverts and pederasts.
They all had a penchant for sodomy, young boys and each other; they despised Christianity and any other form of morality. These people were depravity personified and agitated for the normalization of homosexuality and sex between adults and children.
It's a source of great mirth to know that John Maynard Keynes, the idol and mentor of socialists the world over, was a filthy, depraved nonce who's perverted economic policies mirrored his perverted sexual desires but I digress.
Child Poverty And Sex Abuse - Fighting One While Promoting The Other
The process of legalizing sex between adults and children is easy to follow and began with the removal of God and Christianity, along with its festivals and symbols, from public life. This effectively removed the moral code that allowed western civilization to evolve over two millennia and prevented the depravity we are witnessing today with the acceptance of degenerates like Spacey, Polanski, Savile and Mohammad, etc.
Firstly the political elite decriminalized homosexual practices between consenting adults over the age of 21 years in private.
When this was achieved they campaigned to lower the age of consent to 18 years with an ongoing campaign to lower it to 16 years then 12 years then 10 years. Eventually they plan to abolish the age limit altogether.
Next they abolished the privacy requirement of the law by allowing public displays of homosexuality using parades and marches and forcing public institutions like the police service and fire departments to take part.
All this is accompanied by a massive propaganda campaign to normalize homosexuality and impose its acceptance on society by demonizing, smearing and threatening anyone who voiced opposition.
The next step was to make legally recognized civil partnerships available to same sex couples in lieu of formal marriage.
When this had been achieved the next step was to legalize marriage between same sex couples and give such unions equal status with heterosexual marriage.
This move effectively abolished the sanctity of marriage and in effect ended the traditional family unit which in turn paved the way for the lowering of standards of decency and the acceptance of degeneracy has a basic human right. .
When this step had been achieved all gender distinctions were abolished altogether, a state where any gender dysfunction or sexual practice no matter how perverse and degenerate is considered to be perfectly normal and natural.
By grouping all unnatural sexual preferences and gender dysfunctions under one umbrella, LGBTQFU69 etc. the 'progressive' political elite are using the forced acceptance of these practices to add paedophilia and incest to the list and legalize them accordingly.
The following quote by the late Sir Henry Hodge is confirmation of this fact:
"Homosexuals are now widely regarded as ordinary, healthy people - a minority but no more 'ill' than the minority who are left handed. There is no reason why paedophilia should not win similar acceptance." - Sir Henry Hodge, High Court Judge and Labour Party Councillor.
As has become standard practice by governments and those with an agenda to impose, anyone who voices disagreement with any part of it is demonized and smeared as a homophobe, transphobe, bigot etc. and threatened with prosecution for so-called hate speech or hate crimes.
In conclusion, many people make the valid case that the first step in the process of legalizing paedophilia, i.e. decriminalizing homosexual acts and instituting civil partnerships are right and proper in a modern, civilized society. But it didn't end there. What people failed to realize is that these were the opening shots in a 'progressive' war by a global elite to destroy Judeo-Christian civilization, a war which they are winning and one which we will all pay a terrible price in the end.
Post Script – it has been suggested that since pedophilia is an accepted practice in the Muslim Ummah along with child marriage and incest, its tolerance and eventual legalization is being used to help with the Islamization of the west and also to herald the introduction of sharia law.
Looking at the behavior and actions of the political elite this could very well be the case.

The Defeat Of ISIS Is An Opportunity For Refugees To Return Home
A picture gallery to contrast the devastation of Raqqa after the Syrian Civil War and London After World War II
The global elite and its surrogate governments around the world have cynically used the civil war in Syria to manufacture their phony 'refugee crisis' in order to justify importing tens of thousands of Muslim Syrians into western societies as part of their project to downgrade and replace Judeo-Christian civilization.
(To our eternal shame Christian Syrians, as the world knows, were not included in the 'crisis' and were subsequently enslaved, raped, mutilated and massacred as a result)
With the defeat of ISIS and the fall of Raqqa and the caliphate this excuse is no longer valid. It has long been argued that the solution to the myriad of refugee crises across the planet is not shipping huge populations across continents and oceans into western societies where they cannot, and in most cases, will not integrate but to create safe zones closer to home from where they can return when the conflict ceases.
Despite suitable areas and resources being readily available in nearby Saudi Arabia and the oil rich gulf states, the global elite and western civilization hating 'progressive' organizations have always rejected this option without giving reason because it doesn't suit their cultural replacement agenda.
Now that the civil war in Syria is drawing to a close and peace is being restored there is no reason why refugees cannot return to their homes and assist with the reconstruction of their country instead of being a burden on the host countries who's culture and way of life they hate.
The same global elite and self-loathing 'progressives' are now using the excuse that refugees cannot return home because their towns and cities have been devastated by bombing and therefore unfit for human habitation. When one looks at the devastated European cities after World War II it is more than obvious that this excuse is as phony as their 'refugee crisis'.
Look at the following picture gallery and contrast the bleating of the globalists about the helplessness of the Syrian refugees with the stoicism, patriotism and determination of the British people to rebuild their shattered and destroyed cities after the Blitz by Hitler's Luftwaffe.
Raqqa and London on the receiving end of a bombing campaign
Central Raqqa after its liberation, the East End of London after a bombing attack
Bombed out vehicle in Raqqa and a bombed out bus in London
Some general devastation in Raqqa and London
Children affected by the bombing campaigns in Raqqa and London
Deserted Raqqa. Churchill visits bombed out residents of London's East End.
And finally some of my personal favourites:
Flying the flag and sorting through the rubble for some much loved personal items.
Children clearing a space among the devastation for playing football, cricket or whatever games they enjoyed.
Those stoic British housewives will always find time for a nice cup of tea.
No cup of tea without milk; neither Hitler nor his Luftwaffe could prevent the milkman making his deliveries.
The ultimate example of reconstruction is atomic bomb devastated Hiroshima, Japan
It must be noted that these scenes were repeated right across Europe and Japan. These people didn't run away and desert their countries making themselves a burden on others. They stayed behind, suffered the hardships and rebuilt their cities; there's no reason why Syrians, Iraqis, Afghans, Somalis etc. can't do the same.

Q: How to make a phonebook directory in python uisng linkedlist so im trying to make a phonebook directory in python using linked list but i dont know how to add the name and the number
As well as other functions
P.S my knowledge in python is not that solid and only a second year college
I need a help with this one
`
class Node:
    def __init__(self, name=" ",number=None):
       self.name = name
       self.number = number
       self.next = None

class LinkedList:
    def __init__(self):
        self.head = None

    def Insert(self,name,number):
        pass

    def View(self,name,number):
        pass

    def Update(self,name,number):
        pass

while True:
    ch=str(input("Enter your choice :"))

        insrt=int(input("How many contacts you want to add? :"))
        for i in range(insrt):

        #like to change the number or name

    elif ch=='D' or ch=='d':
        # to delete a contact

    elif ch=='X' or ch== 'x':
        #to exit the program

    else :
        print("invalid option ")

Heres the code ive done so far

A: Insert, view, update, and delete have already been implemented, just search for them on Google. You just need to implement the operations inside of a function. I have a sample code here for inserting a value, just for your information.
name = input("Enter name:")
list = []
contact = input("Enter new Contact: ")
list.append(contact)
list.insert(0,name)
ll.insert(contact)
ll.display()

Simply insert it into the linked list using the arbitrary or *. It will insert multiple values into only one node (one address).
def Insert(self, *newnode):

Rosalvo Bobo (d. 1929), Haitian populist leader of the Cacos rebellion of 1915. On 28 July 1915, U.S. Marines landed at Port-au-Prince in response to the orders of Admiral William B. Caperton to restore civil order following the death of President Jean Vilbrun Guillaume Sam. They were also to prevent Rosalvo Bobo, Sam's political opponent and critic of U.S. imperialism in Haiti, from assuming the presidency.
Bobo opposed the McDonald contract, an attempt by a U.S. company to build a railroad through northern Haiti that would have involved the seizure of Haitians' property through eminent domain. He was also against U.S. receivership of Haitian customs. Thus the United States blocked his election to the Haitian presidency in 1915, instead ensuring that of Philippe-Sudré Dartiguenave, a puppet ruler. Bobo fled to Cuba, then to Jamaica, and finally to France, where he died.

Astronomy Now - Hubble's BUFFALO project looks back at the big picture | Astro What?
The Hubble Space Telescope has started a new project to characterise the galactic environment of the very early universe, capturing stunning wide-angle views of previously observed galaxy clusters to help astronomers better understand the distribution of galaxies in the early universe and the conditions that led to their formation.
The new wide-angle view of Abell 370, some 4 billion light years from Earth, is one of the first in the new Beyond Ultra-deep Frontier Fields and Legacy Observations, or BUFFALO, survey led by astronomers at the Niels Bohr Institute in Denmark and Durham University in the UK. The survey includes surrounding areas initially mapped by NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope as part of the Frontier Fields project.
The new BUFFALO survey of Abell 370 provides a much wider-angle view than Hubble obtained in the Frontier Fields program (seen here outlined in red). Image: NASA, ESA, A. Koekemoer, M. Jauzac, C. Steinhardt, the BUFFALO team and HST Frontier Fields.
To collect the faint light from the most remote galaxies, Hubble is devoting 160 hours to exploring the six galaxy clusters first studied in the Frontier Fields project, which Hubble and Spitzer carried out between 2013 and 2017.

A petition signed by thousands has been delivered to the BBC calling for the removal of its new vice-chair, Roger Carr, because of his continued chairmanship of BAE Systems, Europe's biggest arms company.
Delivered on Thursday morning by the Campaign Against the Arms Trade (CAAT), the petition was signed by 6,350 people with the aim of having Carr removed.
CAAT spokesman Andrew Smith said: "BAE Systems is Europe's biggest arms company and has made its money through arming dictatorships and human rights abusers around the world.
He pointed out the deep historical connections between the government and BAE, a global arms powerhouse.
"The government spends around £4 billion a year on BAE's arms and services. It is vital to have a national media that can hold them to account.
The BBC Trust is the organization's governing body and is charged with many critical functions such as output and creative direction, and the license fee.
Appointments to the trust are made on the recommendation of UK government ministers. The board of trustees consists of 12 people, including a chairman, a vice chairman and members representing England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
BAE Systems has sold weapons to despotic regimes and human rights abusers in Saudi Arabia, Bahrain and Israel. The firm's reputation has been further damaged by bribery allegations that have sparked multiple anti-fraud investigations in Britain and America.
Despite his prominent role at the firm, Carr will be paid £70,610 a year to ensure the BBC acts in accordance with license fee owners' interests.
CAAT suggests the arms dealer's appointment could pave the way for the broadcaster to whitewash the arms trade's destructive impact across the globe.
The charity warns arms dealers care little about broadcasting or the public interest and are primarily driven by a desire to bolster arms sales, and attract a veneer of legitimacy in the process.

Breakfast buffet was poor and things like yogurt were not kept cool with ice, etc. Food was on the floor which the staff never notices and didn't clean up. Waited for coffee for 20 minutes. Hotel not located in the best part of town. Room was clean and comfortable. Room keeping was extremely responsive to our needs. Evening meals in the Mint restaurant were excellent. Had the best hamburger I ever had there. Their fish and chips was also outstanding.
It was wonderful. The staff were very courteous, and really enjoyed our stay. Location was perfect.
Unsafe location, outside of hotel needs facelift!!
For the price I paid I was not happy with my stay. The location of the hotel is in a rather unsafe area. There was a man passed out on the side walk right outside the hotel when my husband and I left to go for dinner. Being a nurse I was concerned but with my husband being military he was concerned we were being targeted so we Unfortunately didn't help the man. The outside of the hotel needs a total facelift include paint and new awnings. Although the rooms looked beautiful, the hotel was pretty vacant. The positive is that the staff was very polite. Because of the location, I would not stay here again.


I found PDXWIT on the Meetup app. I'd never used anything like that before, but a friend had recommended it to me because she had found good connections through it here in Portland.
The experiences I've had at PDXWIT were a huge part of inspiring me to believe I had the capability to really succeed as a woman in tech. For a long time, I thought I was on a track to quit my job and be a stay-at-home mom one day. But over the last couple years, I've really found a love for what I do and found that I can have a positive impact in an organization. I relocated here to Portland last fall and was looking for a job, and being surrounded by other successful women through PDXWIT really helped to give me confidence to aim high in my job search. I found a job in November that is a huge step up from my last position, a significant pay raise, and a lot more opportunity for growth.
I've attend the events monthly, meeting more people and making new connections each time. Recently I've been reflecting on how easy it is for us to give in to cynicism and negative thinking, and I'd just say that we need to work hard to avoid that -- both in our personal lives and our careers. The first step toward improvement is believing that it is possible.

Q: Explode Complex JSON Object (with Objects and Arrays) with jq We are receiving data from a customer and it is highly nested (the customer has done this to reduce the amount of duplicated data, thereby reducing the overall size of data transferred).
The data looks like this:
{
    "r1": "ex",
    "r2": "of",
    "r3": "da",
    "ver": 1,
    "noa1": [{
        "col1": 380,
        "noa2": [{
            "aon": [123],
            "obj": {
                "col10": "stuf",
                "col11": "here",
                "aos": ["A",
                    "X"
                ]
            }
        }, {
            "aon": [],
            "obj": {
                "col10": "more",
                "col11": "stuf"
            }
        }, {
            "aon": [456, 789]
        }, {
            "obj": {
                "col10": "anon"
            }
        }]
    }, {
        "col1": 5676,
        "noa2": [{
            "aon": [875],
            "obj": {
                "col10": "does",
                "col11": "noth",
                "aos": ["Y",
                    "Z"
                ]
            }
        }, {
            "obj": {
                "col11": "phew"
            }
        }]
    }]
}

where there are a number of optional nested objects and arrays (around 6 levels deep IRL, but simplified here).
We have to flatten this to a CSV, where each row would be unique containing the data of the JSON object. We would not want any "new rows" created from a cross product join. So the above would look like:
r1|r2|r3|ver|col1|aon|col10|col11|aos
ex|of|da|1  |380 |123|stuf |here |A
ex|of|da|1  |380 |123|stuf |here |X
ex|of|da|1  |380 |   |more |stuf |
ex|of|da|1  |380 |456|     |     |
ex|of|da|1  |380 |789|     |     |
ex|of|da|1  |380 |   | anon|     |
ex|of|da|1  |5676|875|does |noth |Y
ex|of|da|1  |5676|875|does |noth |Z
ex|of|da|1  |5676|   |     |phew |

For brevity, we show this as a table. In reality, we would want this to be a collection of JSON documents (jq -c).

We have been working with jq, but are getting stuck with working with nested arrays that are not objects, like an array of strings. It is causing a cross join to occur, putting values in places that do not exist in the original JSON. We also have trouble with optional nested rows (jq is currently not printing the row if an array is null, even with the ? modifier.
Questions are:

*

*What would be the jq filter for the original JSON?

*In general, how would one handle nested objects, arrays, and arrays of string, numbers, etc within jq?

Updated:
The following code
.r1 as $r1 | .r2 as $r2 | .r3 as $r3 | .ver as $ver | .noa1[] | . as $noa1 | .noa2[] | . as $noa2 | {$r1, $r2, $r3, $ver, "col1": $noa1.col1, "aon": $noa2.aon }

returns
{"r1":"ex","r2":"of","r3":"da","ver":1,"col1":380,"aon":[123]}
{"r1":"ex","r2":"of","r3":"da","ver":1,"col1":380,"aon":[]}
{"r1":"ex","r2":"of","r3":"da","ver":1,"col1":380,"aon":[456,789]}
{"r1":"ex","r2":"of","r3":"da","ver":1,"col1":380,"aon":null}
{"r1":"ex","r2":"of","r3":"da","ver":1,"col1":5676,"aon":[875]}
{"r1":"ex","r2":"of","r3":"da","ver":1,"col1":5676,"aon":null}

which makes sense.
But now when we try to go further and explode the "aon" array of numbers, it gets weird.
This code
.r1 as $r1 | .r2 as $r2 | .r3 as $r3 | .ver as $ver | .noa1[] | . as $noa1 | .noa2[] | . as $noa2 |
{$r1, $r2, $r3, $ver, "col1": $noa1.col1, "aon": $noa2.aon[]? }

loses the rows that have a null value for "aon", which I can understand, kind of (because of the ?).
But this code fails
.r1 as $r1 | .r2 as $r2 | .r3 as $r3 | .ver as $ver | .noa1[] | . as $noa1 | .noa2[] | . as $noa2 |
{$r1, $r2, $r3, $ver, "col1": $noa1.col1, "aon": $noa2.aon[] }

which I also understand, because of the null values. So we try to reference it as a variable:
.r1 as $r1
| .r2 as $r2
| .r3 as $r3
| .ver as $ver
| .noa1[] | . as $noa1
| .noa2[] | . as $noa2
| .obj as $obj
| .aon[]? | . as $aon
| {$r1, $r2, $r3, $ver, "col1": $noa1.col1, "aon": $aon, "col10": $obj.col10, "col11": $obj.col11 }

and get this far. But a couple of issues: we've lost some rows where aon is null, and we can't figure out how to access "aos".

A: I'm not sure whether you want the "aos" field to be present in every generated object.  If not, you could do worse than:
jq -c '
  .r1 as $r1
  | .r2 as $r2
  | .r3 as $r3
  | .ver as $ver
  | .noa1[]
  | .col1 as $col1
  | .noa2[]
  | .aon as $aon
  | .obj
  | {$r1, $r2, $ver, $col1, $aon, col10, col11}
    + try {aos: .aos[]} catch {} '

If you do, then you could replace the very last {} by {aos: null} or whatever. If you prefer not to use try ... catch then you could replace it by an if statement, or perhaps by:
( (.aos // [null]) | {aos: .[]} )

The key to preserving sanity here is, I think, to avoid creating jq variables except as needed as you "drill down".  Also, jq's support for abbreviations such as {$x} and {y} makes things easier to read and review.

Synopsis: Higher Minimum Wage is Bad for Jobs but Great for Claims Adjusting in IL Workers' Compensation.
Editor's comment: We hate to see our State keep pushing the button on the very populist theory of raising the minimum wage. Our former Governor basically ran almost his entire campaign on the concept because the people who were in his camp love the idea of getting raises without having to do anything other than vote for them. Our main problem with a high minimum wage is the concept is a jobs-buster. Real economic growth would naturally increase the demand for labor-increasing wages without costing jobs. Perhaps the best example of this is from Williston, North Dakota where their vibrant and growing economy is creating a strong demand for labor. Crew-level restaurant employees are already making $11 to $15 an hour and big box retailers are offering work starting at $17 an hour. Even without a government mandate, wages will be higher in any region where economic growth increases the demand for labor.
ü an impairment of earnings.
The wage differential was to be paid for the duration of disability which had previously interpreted to mean "for life" – not "work life," even if after an award was rendered, the employee changed jobs resulting in a change of wages. This aspect of the ruling made the values on a wage loss claim very high. However, for claims starting in 2011 and after, the Amendments to the IL WC Act now mandate wage differential benefits would terminate when the employee reaches the age of 67 or five (5) years after the award becomes final, whichever is later.
Under the IL WC Act, Petitioner cannot recover for both section 8(d)(1) wage differential and a specific loss of use for a man as a whole under section 8(e) or section 8(d)(2). In a wage loss differential claim, the injured worker is entitled to 2/3 of the difference between what they would be making now based on the job they had at the time of the injury and what they are able to make in alternative work at present. From our perspective, the IWCC doesn't want and won't provide total and permanent disability benefits if the doctors and medical care providers agree the injured worker can locate some sort of alternative work after recovering from their injury. And the Americans With Disabilities Act also federally mandates reasonable accommodation in the hiring process, so injured workers have to be provided job modifications and other adaptations to allow them to return to functionality.
· At the current federal minimum wage of $7.25 per hour times 40, the worker would be making $290.00 per week. Wage differential would be calculated as $800 minus $290 times 2/3 or $340 a week.
· At the current Illinois minimum wage of $8.25 per hour times 40, the worker would be making $330.00 per week. Wage diff would be $800 minus $330 times 2/3 or $313.33 per week.
· At the minimum wage of $9 passed by the IL Senate that is to start in July 2015, wage diff would be $800 minus $360 times 2/3 would be $293.33 per week.
· At the Chicago minimum wage, the City-mandated raises are $10.00 per hour by July 1, 2015, then $11 by 2017, and $13 by 2019. Wage diff for jobs in Chicago will soon be calculated $800 minus $400 times 2/3 or $266.67 a week. Those values are sure to be getting lower and lower, as the minimum wage goes up and up.
· In calculating the minimum wage at the future City of Chicago rate of $13 per hour in 2019, the math is $800 less $520 times 2/3 or $186.67. This means such a wage loss claim would provide an annual benefit of only $9,706.84 a year and more traditional permanency values for serious work injuries may supplant wage loss.
We feel these coming numbers can be used right now to start to recalculate reserves and settlements on any wage loss differential claim. We are happy to assist risk managers and claims handlers in doing so.
We also have a great claim strategy on how to completely avoid or end wage loss differential claims for construction and other industries. If you have interest in learning how to cut reserves and save millions by completely avoiding wage loss claims, send a reply.
If you have questions and concerns about how this will impact your current IL WC claims, send a reply and we will get right back to you.
Synopsis: Document! Document! Document Performance and Absences! In an Employment Law opinion as it relates to the Americans With Disabilities Act ("ADA"), the Seventh Circuit affirmed entry of summary judgment on a diligent employer's behalf. Analysis by Bradley J. Smith, J.D.
Editor's Comment: In Taylor-Novotny v. Health Alliance Medical Plans, Inc., the Seventh Circuit rejected the employee's claims of 1) failure to accommodate multiple sclerosis under the ADA; 2) discrimination and retaliation based on a disability; 3) interference with Family Medical Leave Act ("FMLA") rights; and 4) discrimination based on race. The Court reasoned the employee could not succeed on her ADA claims because she failed to establish she was a "qualified individual" under the ADA. The Court further determined the employee failed to meet her employer's legitimate expectations for punctuality and accountability. Consequently, the Court's determination of failure to meet her employer's legitimate expectations was also fatal to the employee's race discrimination claims. Next, the Court concluded the employee did not establish the reasonableness of her accommodation request and also the evidence presented for her ADA retaliation claim was insufficient to form a "convincing mosaic" suggesting her employer retaliated against her because she sought accommodations. Last, the Court reasoned the employer never denied the employee any FMLA leave.
Thereafter, in March 2010, the employee was given a final written warning for arriving late eight times, ranging from seven to forty-two minutes. In May 2010, the Director requested information from the employee's physician as to whether her illness met the ADA definition of disability, which was responded to on July 13, 2010. The employee's physician suggested "a flexible work schedule that would allow her to work efficiently when she is doing well, but allowed for rest on bad days." On the same day, the employer terminated the employee for her continued tardiness and failure to accurately report her work time.
Upon de novo review, the Court reasoned the employee was not a "qualified individual," as regular attendance was an essential function of her job. Additionally, the Court reasoned the employee was not meeting her employer's legitimate expectations, which was fatal to both her ADA claim and Title VII race discrimination claim. Finally, the Court reasoned the employer did not interfere with any FMLA rights of the employee as it continued to approve intermittent FMLA leave, while the employee failed to use her FMLA leave for the two half-days per week. The employer's continuous and thorough documentation of its issues with the employee's attendance was critically important to its defense. It continued to provide performance reviews throughout the employee's employment documenting the employee's marginal attendance and punctuality. Additionally, it documented the discrepancies between the employee's alleged performance and audits of her performance.
At KCB&A, we encourage our clients to implement progressive disciplinary policies and to accurately document and review performance of their employees. As demonstrated in Taylor-Novotny, the accurate documentation of performance issues is essential to the defense of an employment discrimination claim.

When we found out we were having a second little baby boy, I started thinking about double pushchairs. I knew that my perfect double would have a lovely spacious carrycot for my newborn with a soft mattress and it would be nice and long so that the baby could stay snug and cosy for longer. I knew that the toddler seat would be able to face me as Dylan loves to have a chat as we walk. I knew it would work as a single so that we could use it still once Dylan was walking more and would be easy to attach a buggy board to. I knew that the basket would be huge so that I didn't need to carry a nappy bag and it would be nice and accessible. I knew that the buggy would have to fit on a bus as we don't drive and it would have to be light to steer as we walk a lot. It would need an adjustable handlebar as Ed and I are both tall and this would make life so much easier.
Turns out I am very demanding as I wanted a lot of things from my double pushchair and most of the ones on offer didn't tick very many of my boxes!
What I didn't expect was to find everything I was looking for in one pushchair. I was expecting to have to compromise something as double buggies are notoriously difficult but it seems there is one that had everything I was looking for - The Bugaboo Donkey.
It may not be the cheapest on the market, but in my eyes it is more than worth it for such a beautiful pushchair. Bugaboo have really thought of everything! The Donkey has three options, Mono, duo and twin depending on how you wish to use it. In single mode, there is a lovely basket that fits next to the seat or carrycot, which is perfect for shopping. With the help of three single catches, the pushchair transforms into a double and I can have a carrycot and seat, two carrycots or two seats, either parent facing or world facing. Having Dylan parent facing is very important to me as he loves to talk as we walk and I love our little conversations, pointing out cars, flowers and doors!
The seat unit looks very comfortable and is lovely and spacious. Dylan is by no means a small 20 month old (15kg) and he has plenty of growing room left. It has 3 recline positions, including lie flat which is perfect for nap time and a very upright one which I am really impressed with as Dylan loves to sit up straight and not a lot of pushchairs accommodate for this. The 5 point harness is easily adjustable and the shoulder height can be changed without any hassle.
The carrycot is lovely and long and Archie looks like he will be in it for quite some time. The interior is so soft it seems wrong to put a sheet on the mattress! It has a lovely big hood (as does the seat unit) and an easily removable apron, which is zipped on at the end, making it easy to take off and put on when taking the baby out without having to hold it. We have found the rain covers tough to get on, and it took a while to get the knack of it but once on they are on they are very secure even with strong winds.
We have really put the donkey to the test and as well as using it on all terrains (and always being impressed at how smooth it is), I have used it as a double on the bus, train and in taxis. I can wheel it into a London cab without folding it down no problem, and it pushes straight onto the bus as well. The adjustable handle bar can be pushed right down so the Donkey can fit in much smaller spaces than expected. The handlebar has several positions including a lovely high one which is perfect for tall men like the bloke.
The biggest issue I have had with the pushchair is the amount of time I am stopped in the street! Every single time without fail that we are out, we get asked what it is and where they can get one. I am constantly met with appreciative stares and everyone wants to get their hands on a Donkey once they have seen it in the flesh. I have even had someone pull over their car on the side of the road to enquire where she could get such a pushchair!
The donkey comes in several colour options and with Bugaboo recently announcing a partnership with the Andy Warhol Foundation, you will be able to customise to your hearts content with the new hood/apron designs they are releasing!
The bloke is currently refusing to use any other pushchair as he too shares my love of the Bugaboo Donkey, and he loves how light it is to push (even with both boys he can push it up a hill with one finger), how high the handlebar goes and that even with a long stride he is not treading on anything. He also loves how huge the underneath basket it - even my pink lining twins bag fits comfortably underneath, so he is not left with a girly nappy bag to carry around.
I cannot think of a single thing I would change with the Bugaboo donkey. Bugaboo have clearly thought this one through as it has everything you look for in a pushchair, and then some more. I cannot recommend it highly enough!
Disclaimer: I was loaned a Bugaboo Donkey for the purpose of this review but I have received no financial compensation for writing this post. The love is completely my own!

Q: Communicate with a page script from a content script in a Chrome extension I'm loading a content script (1.js), which at some point appends a <script>-element, that point to a file inside the extension (2.js). 2.js can't be included as a content script.
Is there a way to use a variable defined inside 2.js from 1.js?

A: Use message passing between your background page and content script.  The background page holds the value (either by loading 2.js as a script, or by having 2.js be the application's background script itself) and listen for incoming messages with chrome.extension.onRequest.addListener.  The content script sends a request, and the content script sends a response with the desired value.

A: I figured this out. A bit dirty, but works with a dynamic object, which I had in question.
I simply added all the code by injecting it to the page. Here's my content script:
var path = document.createElement('div');
path.id = 'codearea-path';
path.innerHTML = chrome.extension.getURL('/');
path.style.display = 'none';
document.body.appendChild(path);

var script = document.createElement('script');
script.src = chrome.extension.getURL('1.js');
document.head.appendChild(script);

Then I used the same kind of code to include 2.js inside 1.js.

Trump touched on his budget and health care reform in a speech commissioning the USS Gerald R. Ford.
On Saturday, President Donald Trump made a speech commissioning the USS Gerald R. Ford.
But he took a little time out to pitch his budget proposal — which includes a $54 billion increase in defense spending — to the military families and service members present.
"I don't mind getting a little hand, so call that congressman and call that senator and make sure you get it," Trump said.
And, while he was at it, he decided to make a bid for health care reform, too.
"And by the way, you can also call those senators to make sure you get health care," the president said.
Critics have claimed that, since Trump is commander in chief, his appeals could have sounded like orders to military men and women in the audience.
But while the setting for the appeal might be a bit unorthodox, it didn't seem to be an order.
Instead, it seems more reflective of a president whose agenda has been stymied multiple times.
Congress rarely passes a presidential budget untouched, and both sides of the aisle had issues with Trump's most recent proposal.
When it was first introduced, Republicans and Democrats were opposed to a lot of the cuts that the Trump administration was proposing. And the Congressional Budget Office's report on the proposed budget found that it would barely affect the deficit. The administration claims the budget would create a surplus by 2027.
And outside of the budget, Trump has had trouble fully implementing some his campaign promises for a number of reasons, including disagreements in Congress, court rulings and lawsuits.

Essar safety record delivers £9,000 for local charities
Outstanding safety performance at Essar's Stanlow Refinery in the first few months of the year has resulted in £9,000 being donated to local charities. Essar's Let's Give programme, which links safety milestones and charitable giving, recognised the safety achievements by presenting £3,000 each to three charities: The NeuroMuscular Centre, The Wirral Community Narrowboat Trust, and Tiny Steps - all nominated for support by employees at Stanlow.
Tony Penney, a Shift Duty Officer in the Fire and Security Team, nominated The NeuroMuscular Centre (NMC) for a donation, as his cousin has benefitted from the organisation in the past.
Lyndsey Cannon-Potts, Head of Fundraising at NMC said: "Essar's generous donation of £3,000 will help to operate our recently installed neuromuscular gym, the first of its kind in Europe. The benefits of being able to exercise in an accessible environment with adapted equipment include improved cardio-vascular function, enhanced mobility and the opportunity to do something for themselves, at the same time as socialising with others."
The Wirral Community Narrowboat Trust (WCNT) was nominated by Allen Higgins, who has supported them in the past with fundraising. Tim Mobbs, Marketing Manager for the WCNT, commented: "We are delighted with the donation from Essar, as we rely on volunteers and donations to keep our boats and activities running."
The WCNT provides days out and activities for disabled and disadvantaged people and community groups. The charity offers sailings from April to October, and make around 300 sailings per year carrying approximately 3,000 passengers. The two boats are crewed by volunteers, all trained to deliver an enjoyable and safe narrowboat experience. Each boat has been built specifically to be accessible for disabled users, with wheelchair access and flexible seating.
Siobhan Blenkinsop, an Power and Control Engineer at Stanlow nominated Tiny Steps, a charity founded by close friends. The charity is fundraising for a sensory play area and social cafe for children and young people with additional needs and their families in the Northwich and Winsford area.
Tiny Steps was founded by Laura and Martin Clifton, whose seven year old daughter Connie was diagnosed with West Syndrome at only eight months old and who now lives with significant developmental delays. Laura is passionate about providing a support service for families experiencing similar issues in the area. She said: "As a fairly young charity we are still growing and our main aim is to raise enough money to build our centre. This donation is a great step in taking our fundraising forward, and we are looking forward to the day when we can thank every one of our supporters with an invitation to the new centre."

Reach for The Gold Download (1993 Sports Game)
Sports Games:
Download full Reach for The Gold:
Reach for The Gold screenshots:
Ever dreamt of becoming an Olympic champion? Now your dreams can come true. All you need to do is to Reach Out For Gold.
There are 8 events in which you have to compete in order to achieve the final victory! If you don't do well enough in an event, you won't qualify for the next one. It is therefore a good idea to practice. The events are as follows:
Skeet Shooting - You look like a small hunter, ready to shoot some skeet. You have to be very careful though, as you only get one bullet per each skeet, so don't miss!
100m Running - This is plain and simply a dash. You need to quickly press left and right in order go gain speed. The first one to reach the finish - wins.
Archery - Three guys wanted to show off their archery skills. The first hit the bull's eye and said: "I'm William Tell!" The second one split his arrow and said: "I'm Robin Hood!" The third one missed the target and hit an innocent bystander and said: "I'm sorry!" And that's exactly what you'll be -because it's really easy to miss the target, if you don't consider the wind and don't calculate your strength right.
Long Jump - It's just what is says. You need to get a good running start and jump at a right angle in order to make a looong jump.
Boxing - There are several opponents and you need to beet the crap out of them to win. Not many fighting moves though.
Javelin - Similar to the long jump, only that this time you needn't jump, but throw the javelin at the right angel and watch it fly!
Swimming - Again a speed competition, only this time you'll need to repeatedly press fire to gain speed.
Kayak - This is probably the most original event I've seen. By moving left or right you paddle either on the left or the right side of the boat. This is used both for moving and steering. The object is to get to the finish in as little time as possible, while passing all the gates. You will however have to fight the water current as well!
All in all this is a fun game, with many comical moments (like the skeet shooting guy getting angry at you and shooting you through the screen), yet it's still a solid sports game on its own. It has very nice graphics and well done sounds including some speech. It allows you up to 4 players. When you decide you've practiced enough and start competing, you'll also be able to select among many different countries to compete for - or simply choose the Olympic flag if none of the countries suit you.
So enjoy this great but fairly unknown game, maybe even invite 3 friends over and see who'll get the gold in the end (or at least an arrow while shooting with the bow).
Reach for the Gold is fun, arcade-oriented collection of Olympic events. With cartoon graphics and simple controls, the game is strong on fun if short on realism, and as such appeals more to the sports fan who craves the adrenaline rush rather than accurate stats. The events you can compete in are: archery, boxing, skeet shooting, kayak, javelin, 100 meter dash, long jump, and swimming. Excellent animation and many hidden surprises enhance the replay value of this "beer and pretzel" old game.
